Sorry za translit, drugoy yazik poka ne rabotaet.

Posle obnovleniya sistemy cherez apt-get sletel russkiy. Vse, chto bilo po-russki normalno otobrazhaetsya, neogu nastroit' vvod ruskih simvolov - krukozyabri lezut.

Ranshe obnovlyal regulyuarno - vse rabotalo.
V Xorg 6.9 perestalo rabotat' eto:

        Option          "XkbRules"      "xfree86"
        Option          "XkbModel"      "pc105"
        Option          "XkbLayout"     "us,ru"
        Option          "XkbOptions"    "grp:ctrl_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll"

reshil postavit' xrus.

Zapuskau:
xrus jcuken-koi8.xmm

Vot primer teksta pri zapushenom nem, (tekst: Privet, eto napisano na russkom):
ðÒÉ×ÅÔ, ÅÔÏ ÎÁÐÉÓÁÎÏ ÎÁ ÒÕÓÓËÏÍ.

Nalico oshibka- nepravilnaya kodirovka vvoda.
Ne poymu, pochemu ono ne perekluchaetsya.
Vruchnuu ne hotel-bi perestavlyat' x-win i vse, chto s fontami svyazano, inache obnovlyat' dolgo.

Mozhet kto stalkivalsya?
